Victoria's reign was long and presided over the restless expansion of the British Empire and reams of creative genius. Within these volumes we can bring only a glimpse of the richness, beauty and words of their poets and their musings on this remarkable age. Many are world renowned—Tennyson, Browning, Arnold, Kipling, Austin, Hopkins, Hardy and Swinburne. Some almost forgotten— Patmore, Newbolt, Synge. And some barely noted—Lyall, Meynell and Merdeith. But together they encompass a great poetical age. In Volume 3, we collect together Alice Meynell to W. B. Yeats. Among our readers are Richard Mitchley and Ghizela Rowe.
